Injured Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge has rejected claims that he went out partying with rapper Drake in Los Angeles.
The 25-year old is in the USA to undergo rehabilitation for the thigh and calf injuries that have kept him out of club football since the end of August but reports have suggested that he went out 'until the early hours' with the Canadian hip hop star.
However, Sturridge took to Twitter to deny the allegations that he had gone out partying when he is supposed to be focusing on returning to full fitness.
I go to drakes to visit him and catch up and I went for dinner with my friends and I'm supposedly I'm partying!! Really??
